Your starship's rocket engines will blast all the way with a 1-g acceleration, so that you and your crew can experience a comfortable 1-Earth-gravity force inside the starship. The ship will accelerate toward the galactic center for half the journey, then it will rotate 180 degrees and decelerate at t g for the second half. The entire trip of 30,100 light-years distance will require 30,102 years as meas1ued on Earth; but as measured on the starship it will require only 20 years. In accordance with Einstein's laws of special relativity,118 your ship's high 8peed will cause time, as measured on the ship, to "dilate"; and this time dilation (or lime warp), in effect, will make the starship behave like a time machine, projecting you far into the Earth's future while you age only a modest amount.!Z7 You
